The Ghost Shop is a location in Ocarina of Time and is home to the Poe Collector.[1]

Features and Overview[]

Accessible near the entrance to the Market where the Guard House used to be, the Ghost Shop opened after Ganondorf took over Hyrule during the seven years that Link was asleep.[2] As such, the Ghost Shop can only be found during Link's adulthood.

Here, the Poe Collector gathers all sorts of Poes and offers to pay Link with in exchange for them.[3] If Link brings him a normal Poe, the mysterious man will give him 10 Rupees for it. However, if Link brings him a Big Poe from Hyrule Field, the Poe Collector will reward him with 50 Rupees and add 100 Points to his point card.[4][5] By bringing in 10 Big Poes and gathering 1000 points, the Poe Collector will give Link an empty Bottle as a compensation for increasing his inventory of Big Poes, calling Link a "genuine Ghost Hunter."[6] After this, the Poe Collector will not buy any more Poes from Link.[7]
